In the matter of the bankruptcy of j.
NJ. Kapena. The assignee, G. T. Gulick,
filed his schedule of accounts on the
24th and petitioned for an approval OF
the same and his discharge as assignee.
A petition filed by II. Macfarlane, for
Macfarlane & Co., to have assignee show
cause why their claim of 1886 A against
the estate should not be allowed. The
petition, by consent of parties, was
heard. The Court states in reference to
this matter that at the time the claim
was proved by Mr. @. ID. Freeth, atten-
ton was called to the statute of imita-
tions as applicable to this claim. At
the request of the Court the assignee
stated that he objected to this claim be-
cause a certain portion of the bill was
for liquor sold to bankrupt previous to
October I, 1882, when the statute pro-
hibited the sale of liquor to Hawaiians.
After argument by counsel, the Court
orders the assignee to pay all claims
filed as per list filed on Wednesday last,
amounting to SIS 1914 IL.

COMSTOCK ORE BODIES.

For some years past the APPEAL
has been a steady advocate of the
ore bodies concealed on the Com
stock. BY concealed, we mean
kept from the general public. The
mine managers have known all
along where these ore bodies were.
Now when they conclude to show
one up, an air of establishment
spreads over everything. The SUI
perintendents tell the guileless re-
porter how astonishing it is that
"those ore bodies were lying right
there all the while and nobody ever
suspected their whereabouts.
When Con. Virginia was % cents
a share the public was frozen out by
assessments now the stock IS $25,
and the parties who let go are now
permitted to come back and pur-
chase. There is big deal on foot
all along the ledge, founded on
merit, but there is no reason why
the deal could not have been made
at any time during the past five
years. What the APPEAL objects to
are deals which must come just
when the insiders are ready, and no
one else. The talk about so much
Comstock stock being scattered"
at the present time is all nonsense.

DESPICARLE WORK.

The exposure of Harry Dam, ex-
Private Secretary OF Governor Stone
man, as a pardon broker, flattens
out another curled society darling.
1t appears that Dam would not al
low innocent men to leave the Peni-
Tertiary until their friends had paid
over a certain amount of money,
while the worst scoundrels in San
Quentin conld get liberty by putting
up 81 900 to Dam. The Governor
gave him full swing. He would
and Dam could fill them out at
pleasure. In other words, Stone
man was a man of such poor iudg-
ment and weak executive ability
that he intrusted the pardoning
power in the hands of a mere boy
who wore eye glasses, parted his
hair in the middle and assumed the
society swell.
While Dam was dealing in par
dons at $500 and 81 900 apiece, he
did not despise the lesser perquisites
of his office. When anybody had
urgent business with the Governor,
Dam charged them IS apiece to Sc
cure them an audience. This was
the way All XII, Sharon's Chinese
body servant, used to lay aside
money for rainy day. Dam also
boosted that he was able to get any,
thing he pleased from the Governor
by fattering Mrs. Stcneman, and
that the "Guv." was "an easy-go-
ing old fool'' whom Dam could
".wist round his finger" Governor
Stoneman, on hearing how he had
been duped, said that he would
shoot Dam on sight. How this can
mend matters is not apparent. He
has only himself to blame for APP
pointing such fellow as. Dam, and
the shooting of Dam will not release
Stoneman of having made an ass of
himself.

The Reno Journal, edited by c..
C. Powning,) remarks of Stewart as
follows:
"The people, as a whole, never
favored his election. Mr.. Stewart
should attend to the business which
prompted him to desire to live in
Washington. Nevada and her in
terests and her people will get
along nicely without his impertinent
interference"
AS Powning only got one vote in
the caucus, the people couldn't
have been shouting for him very
loud. Eureka county gave Tom
Wren a few votes inst to make him
feel good. Had those votes placed
Stewart in jeopardy they would
never have gone for Wren. Dag
gett was out of the fight along with
Fair, his partner. Powning had
better not attempt to write up the
last campaign until some years
from now, when people forget more
about it. The idea of Powning al
luding to anyone's ''impertinent
interference" sounds very funny.

A Good Resolve.
Progressive Farmer.]

The farmers of North Carolina seem
to be at last realizing the folly OF de-
pending exclusively on the use OF com
mercial fertilizers in the cultivation OF
their crops. Our State exchanges IN
the different sections of the State make
frequent mention of the fact that the
farmers in their respective localities
are purchasing less of these fertilizers
this wear than heretofore, some OF them
none, having determined to turn their
attention to homemade manures IN
stead. There is sense in this, although
the determination is made at a late
day. But better late than never. Ii
the farmers of North Carolina had
spent one half the money in the pro-
duction of home made manure that
they have paid for imported tertlllzers'
their farms would be in much better
condition to-day than they are, and
they would have more money to show
for the labor they have done. We DO
not object altogether to commercial
fertilizers. They are good enough Ju-
diclously used, and judiciously used
means used in connection with and
not as a substitute for homemade ma
nures. As stimulators of growth they
answer, but as permanent feeders OF
the soil they do not. They add noth.
ing to the soil which is not consumed
| by the growing crop, which Is lett as
Door when the crop is gathered as II
was before it was planted, if not poor
er. The good farmer who farms IN
tcllieently will make his lands richer
while he makes his crops larger, anc
from well-fed land will gather nj
bountiful harvest the poor farmer wht
has learned nothing by experience VII
continue to doctor his sick land witt
high priced imported fertilizers, an'
expect good crops. But his SICK lane
will never get well, never get stroni
f under that treatment. 1t is not reall
+ so sick as hungry. What it wants
S the right kind of food, and enough c
! it to give it life and vgor.
If twenty years ago the lalii'ei'
e North Carolina had learned the valu
e of the homemade manure pile, an
r given their attention to 1t instead
n commercial fertilizers there would
h fewer abandoned cold fields an
IS yawning gulleys on the red h'llsldes
Il bring reproach upon and proclaim tt
l. folly of the men who spent their ilv
S, in destroying the inheritance of the
= children. There are millions OF acr
Of OF land in North Carolina turned o
IS, as worthless for cultivation, which on
IL bore fair crops, and which have BET
IN ruined by senseless farming, and mu
n, of which now, by proper managemer
I'd might be restored to fertility and
ld made valuable. But it will never
ct done until our farmers learn the val
est of straw, forest leaves, grass, clover a
er, the other materials for tertlilzlng p'
he poses which should be found upon
no near every farm.
